I know many of you out there have been waiting to cast your ballots in baited breath, holding off to see which way you should vote pending AFC's endorsement. On the issues, Barack Obama is flat out scary. His platform not only is radical, it is also unoriginal and plagiarized from the Socialist Party USA candidate Brian Moore's website:
On Iraq:
Socialist Party USA Platform

"Stop The War in Iraq and Afghanistan and bring the American troops and reconstruction companies home immediately."
Barack Obama's Platform
"Immediately upon taking office, Obama will give his Secretary of Defense and military commanders a new mission in Iraq: ending the war."
On Health Care:
Socialist Party USA Platform
"Implement a national health care system to include comprehensive health, dental and mental health care for all residents, foreign and domestic."
Barack Obama's Platform
"Obama and Biden will require coverage of preventive services, including cancer screenings"

On Defense:
Socialist Party USA Platform
"Call for immediate 50% cut in the military budget, with additional 50% over the next 10 years"
Barack Obama's Platform
"Call for the immediate cut of 25% in the defense budget."
On Labor:
Socialist Party USA Platform
"Mandate right of employees for access to chose labor union representation to assure fair salaries and benefits"
Barack Obama's Platform
"Obama and Biden will strengthen the ability of workers to organize unions. He will fight for passage of the Employee Free Choice Act."
On Wages:
Socialist Party USA Platform
"Initiate a guaranteed income for all American families, working or not, at a level of $35,000 per year per adult (2008 Cost of Living levels)"
Barack Obama's Platform
"Barack Obama and Joe Biden will raise the minimum wage, index it to inflation and increase the Earned Income Tax Credit to make sure that full-time workers earn a living wage that allows them to raise their families and pay for basic needs."
On Abortion:
Socialist Party USA Platform
"Support a woman's right to choose in matters of abortion; and oppose all restrictions on access

Barack Obama's Platform
"However, he has been a consistent champion of reproductive choice and will make preserving women's rights under Roe v. Wade a priority as President. He opposes any constitutional amendment to overturn the Supreme Court's decision in that case."
On Civil Rights:
Socialist Party USA Platform:
1) end all restrictions in law and work place, marriages and sodomy laws
2) prevent student violence and discrimination in schools and all of society
3) federal ban on all forms of job discrimination, on the basis of race, sexual orientation, gender or economic status
4) oppose English as the only official language
Barack Obama's Platform:
"Obama and Biden will work to overturn the Supreme Court's recent ruling that curtails

Not only has the Obama campaign taken credit for the work of the Socialist Party USA without giving recognition, Obama has also helped to destroy Al Gore's Internet. Obama has paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to have individuals sit behind a computer all day and attack people who do not support Obama and label

The Obama-led left has greatly fractured America to the point where any chance at unity will never happen. His supporters have ensured that this by making this campaign one personal attack after another on McCain, Palin and anyone who isn't a card-carrying member of the Socialist Party.
Therefore, among many reasons, the AFC is throwing its heavy leverage behind the McCain campaign, a move that will surely build enough momentum to defend this great country from the overt Socialists that surround us.

I like your blog - I often read but never comment. I was reading through your recent posts and was wondering what an Obama-era would mean for - say - my husband who is in the military? How is his winning going to impact the guys in uniform - especially given that republican's are usually more pro-militay versus the democrats. I've read a lot about the projected impact of an Obama win, but nothing about how it will impact the military, other than budget cuts (and we all know family pograms are the first to go). What do you think? Are there any articles out there on that? I'm just cuious - especially with the hubby being a recruiter and all.
